On November 11 at 7 p.m., István Rév, Founding Director of Blinken OSA Archivum, will open the 22nd Verzió International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival at Trafó House of Contemporary Arts. Enikő Gyureskó, festival director, will give a welcoming speech. Tickets for the event are available.

This year's slogan for Verzió, "We Exist Together," invites us to think collectively: how can we live together amid the fractures, conflicts, and challenges of our world? 

The full program have been announced, and ticket sales for the 22nd Verzió International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival have begun! The film festival, which runs from November 11 to 19, will once again bring the world's most topical documentaries to Budapest and several other cities, and 36 films from this year's program will also be available online from November 20 to 30.

In November 11–19, the 22nd edition of the Verzió Film Festival will bring the latest human rights documentaries to cities across Hungary. This year’s slogan, We Exist Together, urges collective thinking about the ways we can live together amid the fractures, conflicts, and challenges of our reality. The opening film, Sundance Special Jury Award winner Coexistence, My Ass!, is a portrait of an Israeli–Palestinian stand-up comedian.

We invite young documentary film enthusiasts to apply to the Young Jury at this year's festival.

Deadline: 5 October, midnight CET.

The 22nd Verzió International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival takes place between November 11-19, 2024, in Budapest and between 20-30 November online at festival.verzio.org.
